    This sits next to the armchair in front of the of our new smart TV. Could we control the TV with a remote? Sure, but this makes everything just that much easier, especially for my vision impaired mother who can't clearly see remote buttons.

    We bought this $20 item to add to our existing 2 Echo Dot (3rd gen), because it is so convenient and nice to access the info by voice activation. It is light weight and can be placed anywhere in a room without taking up much space.

    The echo dot is super handy, it’s great for setting alarms to playing music and listening to my podcasts. I give it a 10/10 because it has so many uses that I am continually finding out. The sales price made it even better.

    I purchased this unit as a Secret Santa gift. After the person won it, I explained to them how the Alexa units work and how simple they tend to make life. She went off and bought one for each bedroom of her house (she loved it so much after using it for a week).

    This is my second echo, it is in my living room / dining room area (small home). I love it. Just recently, I set up a few routines, which I really like. I also got a smart power strip, and now I can voice control turning on my lamp, seems silly but it is nice.

    We already have a couple of Google Home Minis, and picked this up for my daughter. Setup was a breeze and it seems to have a LOT more functionality than the Google Home Mini. I wish we had gotten the Echo Dots in the first place!

    We are seniors and hadn’t considered the Alexa until my brother on law showed us his. We couldn’t be happier with it. Love to have Alexa play us music and answer various questions. We are learning new things every day. Five stars!

    I use this mainly to turn on my lights and not much else. Sometimes I have it play music, check the weather, make simple calculations, or whatever; but I mostly naturally do that on my phone anyway. Works great.

    I had one for several years and it just stopped working. I wanted a replacement. Its great to play music, get weather. I also wanted something to get instant answers to questions like what time is a store open until.

    I love everything about the 3rd generation echo dot. The overall quality is excellent. I can't believe all the things you can do with the dot considering its very affordable price. One of the best values you will find.

    Enjoy music, being able to shut off your lights, programming your wake up call y just giving voice commands. I originally got it as a gift for my daughter but I thought it was so useful that I got one for the whole family.
